2016 Summer Transfer Speculation

Elphick will hopefully organise him well.

I struggle to see Hernandez happening, Hull just seem to be digging their claws in

Is the left back slot Bacuna's until he loses it (to be fair he's been good the last few games) or will our new boy get the nod by default?

Naturally Hutton isn't even in the running.

If he can cross then Bacuna Out!

Well if it is Hernandez, that's a truly fantastic addition.

Whilst we're in the realms of being spoilt, I'd absolutely love a bid for Austrian attacking midfielder Zlatko Junuzovic from Werder. Absolutely no chance of course, but if it's an attacking midfielder/free kick specialist we're needing - this guy would more than fulfill the requirements.
I can dream can't I??!!

From.what I read, it's a case of them being in a bit of limbo with only a caretaker manager. Quite what they'd do with the money with no manager to spend it is anyone's guess and probably why they're going slow.

Hernandez would improve us or how about we go for someone that could transform us, I wonder if the Dr is thinking of someone on a higher level?

Names anyone?

Hearing that Diawara,Wells,Bamford & Hernandez are all non-starters for @AVFCOfficial for various reasons. The search continues.Meter ticks!

Personally I think Hernandez is a non starter unless he pushes for a move as Hull really have no reason to sell the lad. Especially when you consider the start they've had. Wells and Bamford i think will be back-up options and the Diawara stuff was weird from the start as he's only a teenager and though talented we have more pressing concerns tbh.

I think the striker will be a bolt out of the blue. Someone we probably haven't been linked with yet.

Agree Thriller and it all depends on other clubs transfer activity, I honestly think it will be a meltdown marquee superstar that will prob happen on DD day.

Since you know the leagues well mate, how good is Bradley Dack? Worth a shout to strengthen the bench?

I quite like the look of Lukaku and after missing out on him last season, I hope the good Dr puts in a bid for Mata.

I NEVER EVER doubted the Doctor, it was obvious to me from the beginning the passion he has to make us succeed and that he certainly isn't skint but we aint seen nothing yet people, if he is attracting players from premiership clubs to drop down a league, what sort of players are we gonna bring in when back in the prem!!! it really is happy focking days boys and girls

The Dr is doing his part, lets hope everyone at the club can keep up with him.

Happy days.

not just the Dr mate, credit has to go to everyone, wyness, rdm etc

So anyway De laet is a very solid signing indeed. Late 20s so should be coming into his prime, has a vast amount of championship experience and has two promotions under his belt too. So this is a very smart piece of business for a good fee aswell. Lets do the maths of how much we've spent thus far.

Gollini= 4.4m (21 years old Italy u21 keeper)
Tshibola= 5m (21 years old with Championship experience)
Mccormack= 12m (30 years old with international and championship experience)
Elphick= 3.5m (28 years old with premiership and championship experience)
Jedinak= 4m (32 years old with premiership, international and championship experience)
Chester= 7m (27 years old with premiership, international and championship experience)
De Laet= 2.5m (27 years old with premiership, international and championship experience)

So thus far we've spent around 37.9m. So with us taking in around 15.5m through the sales of Gana, Sinclair and Clark that means our net spend thus far is near enough 23m which blows everyone out of the water in the championship and is also more than Arsenal, Bournemouth, Burnley, West Brom, Palace, Everton, Hull, Leicester, Liverpool, Boro, Southampton, Stoke, Sunderland, Swansea and Spurs.

Watford and West Ham have spent around 5m more net and only Man Utd, Chelsea and Man City have spent significantly more. So as I type this our net spend is the sixth best in the country and by the time the window closes there's a chance it might be even better. Has a championship club ever done this before? I very much doubt it.  

Newcastle have spent 45m and recouped the same amount. By the time the window is closed our total spend could be over the 50m mark and if that happens imo it all but confirms that our new owners have serious clout behind them.

what a great read matey, I think they have serious clout and I once said on here this takeover is man city style, I even more so believe that now

I think it's time for bed mate as that's the second time you've mentioned Left back, when they're all right backs

I wonder if this is the new no 9?

Fulham are interested in signing Asamoah Gyan on loan from Shanghai SIPG.

The former Sunderland striker has found his game time limited following the arrival of Hulk at the Chinese side, and it is thought he would welcome the opportunity to play under Slavisa Jokanovic.

There is still plenty of work to do to get this over the line, but sources claim the player could fly in this week for a medical.

Not seen much of him but judging by his record in league one he looks like he knows where the net is having scored 15 last season. Goalscoring midfielders are hard to find so if we got him for a small fee why not? Though it looks like Brighton are sniffing around him.

Anyway the Hernadez plot thickens guys as word is he's not travelled with the Hull squad tonight for their league cup game .

Abel Hernandez won't be involved at Exeter tonight. He hasn't travelled. #hcafc say they're "protecting a hernia injury."

There's a chance it is Hernandez even Nixon tweeted it was him, only time will tell, also Hull are after Richards according to some on twitter maybe if we throw in Gabby on a free that will break the ice.
